In case you’re already having second thoughts about that new year’s resolution, have no fear! There’s more to exercise than your standard gym routine.
Virtual Surfing
The surfboard actually wobbles around like a real one, so you actually get a balanced workout (no pun intended) as you do yoga-like stretches while also trying not to fall off.
Great for: Balance, strengthening your core, and cardio health.
Price: Depends on what gym you're a member of (according to SurfSET)

Rock Climbing/Bouldering
Basically, you trick yourself into actually working out your arms because you suddenly become obsessed with reaching the top or getting to the next hardest level. GENIUS.
Great for: Upper body strength, flexibility, endurance.
Price: Monthly Auto-Pay $99 +$50 for registration (according to Brooklyn Boulders)

Yoga Fight Club
If only Tyler Durden went to yoga fight club instead -- an intensive fusion of vinyasa and kickboxing would probably been a healthier way to let off steam.
Great for: Cardio health, flexibility, stamina.
Price: $5 (according to Om Factory)
Burlesque Dancing
Working out doesn't have to mean feeling sloppy in sweats. Burlesque dancing is a great way to work on your self-confidence while also toning your body and improving your flexibility. Not to mention it's sexy. Duh.
Great for: Flexibility and also your abs.
Price: $95 for 4 sessions (according to The New York School of Burlesque)
